CHAPTER 335
He kept his phone in his pocket and peered out the window once more. He saw her rush towards her car and unlocked the door but before entering, she looked up, her gaze pointing in his direction briefly before entering and zooming off.
'You have grown and learned a lot but not up to the point of hiding your pain and feelings from me. I promise I would make it right and fix your pain.'

At about the same time while Li Jing's brain was turning to shambles, several other acquaintances of hers were busy plotting.
In a cozy big living room, a guy is seen sitting with a glass of water in his hand and a bottle of champagne and another glass of half-filled champagne in it.
He looked closely at a bunch of pictures in his other hand before setting it down after some time.
"Hmm, I think I better inform her about the recent happenings n case she is not aware of what is going on."
Dropping the pictures and taking the phone, the guy dialed a number and placed it on his left ear, waiting for the receiver to pick the call.
"Hello."
"Hi. Evening."
"Evening Huizhong. To what do I owe this call? Do not tell me that it is because you are missing me," Bai Qing Mei teased before clearing her throat and sounding serious. 'What is wrong Huizhong?"
"Bai Qing Mei, thankfully you know when and when not to joke. There is something going on of recent."
"Isn't there always something going on?"
"Yes, I understand what you are trying to say. There is. However," Hao Huizhong paused and let out a deep sigh. "Something I think you would be more than interested in knowing."
"Like what?"
"Technically not a what but a who." Hearing this, Bai Qing Mei did not know how to react. She had so many enemies prior and so she did not know which one, in particular, he was talking about.
"Who is this person then?"
"Hmm, the only person to have stolen from you and still stood proudly today. It is no other person than the witch, Li Jing."
"Li what?"
"Li Jing, Qing Mei. Li Jing." Hao Huizhong repeated the name to her hearing so she could understand the grave danger.
All these while she had been thinking that with Li Jing gone, she had everything and all it took to win Ye Cheng back. It was either she tried to be seductive or entrap him and make him pay with his body.
Regardless of whichever method she used, she was confident that he would probably want or need her. What a bloody shame.
"What do you mean by Li Jing is back, ehh Hao Huizhong? How can that witch be back?" Bai Qing Mei's mind fell into chaos instantly.
Here she thought that there was no worthy love rival between herself and Ye Cheng but now that Li Jing being the only woman to break through Ye Cheng's barrier and capture his heart, it was only natural that Bai Qing Mei felt threatened by her presence.
"Calm down, Qing Mei."
"How can I be calm at such a time like this? It is not even funny one bit, I promise you. What would happen to my plans now?"
"Stop it, Qing Mei!" Hao Huizhong yelled into the phone, finally getting her attention. "Stop it and calm down. Li Jing's appearance here doesn't mean the end for you. Let us just wait and see."
Taking his advice, Bai Qing Mei managed to calm down before speaking her mind again. "Okay. Tell me, what intel do we have on her? Why has she come back to Star City? Or is it that she is here for a visit?"
"We do have intel on her, Qing Mei but oh well, I regret to inform you that she has come to stay. She is opening a new branch for her grandfather's company here at Star City."
"Bloody hell!"
"My thoughts exactly. This simply means that she is going to be staying here for a very long time, my dear. Avery long, long time."
"Hmm." Bai Qing Mei said nothing more and just allowed her thoughts to flow. It was not like she did not anticipate this to come. She did but hearing it first hand wasn't what she was exactly happy about or something.
"Fine. Initiate plan alpha. Contact her and carry everything on."
"Are you so certain we can trust her?"
"Yes. You see seem to underestimate the power of a common man, Hao Huizhong. She has lost everything because of Li Jing and now, I bet she would give anything to get her revenge on Li Jing."
"The enemy of my enemy is my friend," Hao Huizhong stated softly."
"Exactly. Right now she needs backing and we are more than able and ready to assist. All we need to do is to give her reason s to hate her even more and fuel her anger against Li Jing. Then we come in and exploit that anger, making her do the dirty work for us."
"I love your thinking, Qing Mei. It is a shame, Ye Cheng chooses to be your enemy."
"Yeah, so also is that witch. She would regret crossing me. They both will and that so-called affection between them, I would ruin it. Crush it with my own hands until he comes begging me and anyone who stands in my way would face the same fate."
"I have no doubt about that. You are very capable," Hao Huizhong praised her.
"Just do as I have said and let the rest play out accordingly," Bai Qing Mei instructed.
"Noted. I would update you when I get favorable news."
"Okay, bye." The call ended and Bai Qing Mei's eyes dimmed further as she gazed into the distance, allowing her maniacal thoughts to run through her mind freely.
"Hahahaa… Wait for me, Li Jing. Wait and be prepared to meet your doom. I would ensure you regret returning to this city."
